Some of us here at Weekly Wire are what you'd call "news
hounds" - we can't get enough information about current issues
and events. Fortunately, the Internet has enough news sources
to keep our minds soaked, even sloshing, with data. This page
provide resources that will help you attain a similar level of
saturation. You'll be a news hound in no time. Sit! Sit!

All the contributors to Weekly Wire, along with other
AAN (Association of Alternative Newsweeklies) publications, can
be read from this one easily accessible spot. Strongly recommended
for bookmarking.

Our online BBS is an open forum for you to say anything
you like about current events, controversies, or whatever else
is stuck in your craw. You need not write about capital punishment,
abortion, partisan politics, gun control, police brutality, or
other common subjects - you can write about anything, anything,
did I say "anything"? Yes, Anything.

Here are some News & Opinion -related links
we think are worthwhile. Please feel free to email us with favorite
links of your own.

Best Of Guides - If you want to get the full flavor of local
politics in a number of cities, check out the Best Of guides from
our contributors. Not only do these yearly issues contain information
about a town's "Best Chinese Restaurant" or "Best
Park," they're also full of telling, boastful, and sometimes
just plain vicious details about local politics and celebrities.
Examples might include "Best Idiotic Soundbite by a Local
Spokesman" or "Best Reason to Vote 'None of the Above'
in the Gubernatorial Election." Find out for yourself -
especially if the newspaper represents a town you plan to visit.
